We enjoyed a good family day yesterday. We went to the mall intending to pick up our JC Penny catalog only to find out they are not in stock! We walked the mall and people watched, it's one of my favorite things! We enjoyed sharing a Pecan Cinnabon together.
After our adventure at the mall we went to #2 son's favorite store, TOYS FOR US. He was rewarded for loosing his two front teeth. He picked out a barrel full of plastic army men.
Brought them home and played for over 4 hours with them until he went to bed. He was up WWwwaaaaayyy to early this morning... when I got up he was in bed with the army men spread around conducting war drills!
We had a great dinner of homemade fried rice with LOTS of vegetables and watched a good movie, INKHEART.
Today is laundry, vacuuming and library day. Be blessed!
It's so adorable how excited your son was with his new gift! I love the pictures....precious. Yummy..homemade Fried Rice. Did you add meat to it? Blessings for a wonderful week.
ReplyDeletetoo cute! Isn't it amazing how much enjoyment they can get out something so little?
ReplyDeleteOoo..it's library day for us too! Your day at the mall sounds fabulous, I bet it was packed being a holiday and all. Congrats to the little man for his hard earned Army guys! Love you.
ReplyDelete@buana - it had two little boneless skinless chicken thighs in it and two eggs, broccoli, peas, waterchesnuts, onions, canned baby corn,mushrooms, carrots, celery, green cabbage, 2 c cooked rice, and soy sauce to taste. Yummy!
ReplyDelete@betheelou - sounds yummy and very easy. Thanks for the recipe :)
ReplyDeleteWhat boy doesn't love his army men!!! He cracks me up! My boys were just talking to him on the phone this morning. Our middle one pretended he was calling him on our old cell phone. They do have imaginations!Any good finds at the library?
ReplyDeleteThose were my kids favorite toys to play with too. Cinnabons are one of Jack's favorites too. Just let you know, I figured out the music!! Thanks a bunch for the help!!
ReplyDeleteafter reading your post i now want a cinnabon and my jc penny's catalog!!! :)we've got to head to the library today... i know we have some over-due's. i'm terrible about that. :(enjoy your day.amber.
ReplyDeletetalk about a YUMO PICTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!You know, after all these years, we find army men ALL OVER our yard. I never pick them up. I can see my grand yungins finding them and having fun all over again. There isnt anything like army men! Brett even took some photos of some old nasty looking army men he found in the yard and entered them in the county fair this year and won a ribbon. He developed them in black and white to look like a real old timey photo. I have thought of enlarging them and put them on my wall!!!! Sounds like a great day. And I think we have the same agenda today!!
ReplyDelete@Hutch5 - I am sooo bad at returning books. Our previous library gave us 4 week for check out, this one is only three and videos are 1 week, a dollar a day, per day, if late! I could pay someones salary!
ReplyDelete@betheelou - yup.. i know! and the late fees will kill ya. my husband says they could have built a whole new library with what we've paid in late fees!!! :/
